Ideographic Modernism: China, Writing, Media
Bush, Christopher (Associate Professor of French and Program Director of Comparative Literary Studies, Associate Professor of French and Program Director of Comparative Literary Studies, Northwestern University)
Ideographic Modernism reconstructs the modernist invention of the "ideograph" (Chinese writing as imagined in the West) in relation to such other modern forms of writing as photography, phonography, cinematography, and telegraphy. Analyzing works by Pound, Kafka, Benjamin, and others, it recovers the presence of China in the text of modernism.
